title = "Comparison Of Four Landfill Gas Models Using Data From Four Danish Landfills",

abstract = "Data about type and quantity of waste disposed in four Danish landfills was collected and used on four different landfill gas generation models. This was done to compare the output data in order to evaluate the performance of the four landfill gas models when used on Danish waste types, and to compare the four Danish landfill sites. The results show that three of the models generally give similar methane generation output. Only the LandGem model seems to give a much higher methane generation for Danish waste data, most likely due to a low organic fraction. Interpretation of the waste data and the categorization of the waste play an important role in the methane prediction and combining the model predictions with whole site methane measurements would therefore be advised.",
